Indian IPO market reaches record $12.5 billion in nine month
Overview
Following a historic surge in global IPO capital during the first half of 2026, the Indian primary market has maintained intense momentum. In late September, the market entered a period of high activity with approximately 20 companies scheduled to launch offerings, expected to raise over 4,169 crore rupees.
By the end of the first half of the 2026-27 fiscal year (April–September), Indian companies reached a record 94,205 crore rupees raised through mainboard IPOs, a 35 percent increase over the previous year. This period was bolstered by major listings such as the National Stock Exchange (NSE), SBI Funds Management, and Manipal Health Enterprises.
Extending this momentum into the third quarter, India’s IPO market reached a record $12.5 billion in fundraising during the first nine months of 2026. According to an analysis by LSEG, this represents the highest January-to-September fundraising total since records began in 1980.
While total proceeds rose by 11.3 percent, the total number of IPOs decreased by 17.9 percent year-on-year, falling to 220 from 268. This growth in capital was driven by an increase in the average issue size, which rose to approximately $57 million from $42 million. This activity occurred despite broader market pressure, including a 14 percent decline in the Nifty index. Notably, offers for sale accounted for nearly three-fourths of the proceeds, suggesting much of the capital was directed to existing shareholders rather than the companies themselves.
